ASTM F2068 Fatigue test system of Femoral Prostheses Implants, Hip Implants Testing

ASTM F2068: Standard Specification for Femoral Prostheses – Metallic Implants

Specification for fatigue testing and determining coating integrity of femoral THR stems. Fatigue testing can be performed according to ISO 7206-4 and ISO 7206-6. Samples are tested for 10 million cycles. Coating integrity can be assessed according to ASTM F1044 (shear strength), ASTM F1147 (tensile strength) and ASTM F1978 (abrasion resistance).

ASTM F2068 specification covers metallic stemmed femoral prostheses used to replace the natural hip joint by means of hemi-arthroplasty or total hip surgical procedures. Prostheses for hemi-arthroplasty are intended to articulate with the natural acetabulum of the patient. Prostheses for total hip replacement are intended to articulate with prosthetic acetabular cups. Prostheses may have integral femoral heads or cones designed to accept modular heads.
